For The Fourth Time 
;)

The map is sealed with a big box (always bad) and when reading what editor that has been used, I understand why.

If you want to map for Q1, I suggest that you stay away from Qoole. It's an extremely bad editor and will cause you major grief.

Better editors are BSP, WorldCraft or QuArK. You can even use non-Q1 editors like Hammer or GtkRadiant, but then you'll need conversion tools as well.

Also, if you want your minlight to work, you'll have to switch compile tools. Take a look at http://user.tninet.se/~xir870k and http://www.planetquake.com/tyrann
!!! FFS !!! 
If you can't even use a simple forum properly why are we trusting you to make maps?! 
 
It's not what you use but how you use it.

I've read comments on one or 2 of Here's maps that were good - I think that accounts for something.

Let him be himself. 
Errr 
Qoole is the worst and shittest piece of software ever released by far, even worse than windows.

"It's not what you use but how you use it".

This maybe true in the bedroom, but for map editors it is not, again : Qoole is the utter bollocks of the universe, I would rather pose nude for loads of french weirds to draw me (on their fucking wacoms!) than use that editor.

...Ahem, but of course if he likes causing himself immense pain by using it then by all means carry on :)

Someone please post the link to worldcraft 1.6 so Here can try it out, I would do it myself but I lost the link :/

Here : Give it a go, worldcraft is so much better and you'll be able to create much better stuff with it. 
Here It Is Here, Here 
Better Still 
Use GTK Radiant, it's head and shoulders above the rest IMO, a little bit of messing around to set it up, but nothing to painfull, and once your up and running, you'll never turn back :) 
Re: Better Still & Qoole Stuff 
yes yes, very true! i love gtkr

qoole sucks because it makes tons of problems that are easily avoidable in newer editors with better tools and stuff. for instance, it's easy to make brushes that are not convex and have the qbsp compiler kick you in the balls. new programs like gtkradiant will either flat out not let you shape the concave brush or else delete it later. 
I've never seen a convex brush in gtkradiant, although I did once get a brush only defined by three points.

I am sorry but I don't know where to turn to and I am sure you guys wont mind helping me ...?

How do I kill (for good) the Commander in Devastation? I know I shouldn't be playing it but I got sunstroke and my mind went all funny!

Pretty please.

Oh Bugger! 
Didn't mean to double post, sorry. 
You're Not Very Good At Just Single Posting Either... 
But since a double post is kinda mild by the usual standard around here, you're forgiven. 
Lol

Editor Wars 
Qoole (2.50) was nice but the bad .map export screwing up things makes it a bad choice for anyone not happy with axial angles everywhere. After I realised that (all my non-sm released quake maps are made in qoole) I went on what now is called "the great editor hunt". The result was that I couldn't stand any of the quake editors and didn't do any mapping until I found radiant through q3. 
Hmm... 
I recognize about 8 or 9 names in the last 400 posts. Where has everyone gone? 
I Dunno, Prod 
Probably the same place you went. 
TRONYN! 
Did you get my e-mail I sent you a month or two ago about TNJ?

Tyrann! 
Did you get my email i sent you about 2 days ago? 
UWF 
Yes, and I got the other messages asking me about the first message. I've sent the reply twice now, so something must be up with your mailbox... 
GF FX 5900 Ultra 
Anyone got one of these yet? I am thinking of Ordering one in the next couple of weeks, from the reveiws I have seen the speed is way up there, but I am just wondering about the noise. They say they have fixed it from the previous versions, but......

And the P4 3.00/3.06gig CPU's, 3.00gig 800mhz FSB, 3.06gig 533mhz FSB, with the 800mhz FSB, I would require new Ram (DDR400)and Motherboard, with the 533mhz FSB I could use the Ram I have now, So would there be much difference between the 2?

I was going to waite till closer to DooM3's release, but, don't know if I can :( 
Tyrann 
everything is ok, small technical problem at my end, now fixed. :)
